Winger Dom Manfredi, 20, came into the Warriors side to grab two tries against Hull FC, replacing teenager Joe Burgess, who sustained a knee injury
in their win over Catalan Dragons
after scoring his 19th try of the season earlier this month.

In-form full-back Matty Bowen, who has scored 13 tries in 17 appearances, was also out with a slight knock last week, joining the likes of
Blake Green,
Michael McIlorum and
Iain Thornley
on the sideline.

Wane said the current injury woe could prove to serve the Warriors well as they prepare for the end-of-season play-offs and may also strengthen the club for years to come.

"We are in a good place," added Wane. "It will benefit us at the end of this year, next year and the year after that if these young players have match experience.

"I'm very pleased with what I see. We have such a good spread throughout the squad that we can leave nine players out and put those young kids in and still win games."
